Khadija lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Rabat General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,300. Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Khadija could join the school sports day. It would change everyday life for the whole family. We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $1,300 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $80 • Fitting and training sessions: $65 • specialist standing frame: $1,155 Thanks for being kind about this. - Ali

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Khadija

          • Ali Hadi GhanemOwnerAnswer

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. first-year servicing plan comes first ($80) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.
